Moses Nathaniel Moreno (born September 5, 1975) is a former American football quarterback. He was drafted by the Chicago Bears in the 7th round (232nd overall) in the 1998 NFL Draft out of Colorado State. He attended Castle Park High School, where he became a two-time all-conference selection.
Moreno played college football at Colorado State for three seasons, and had a career record of 22-8. In 1997, he was named the Western Athletic Conference Offensive Player of the Year, passing for 2,257 yards, 20 touchdowns and nine interceptions. Moreno also led the Rams to two Holiday Bowls in 1995 and 1997 (in which he was named co-MVP), and ended his career with a school-record 49 touchdown passes.
Moreno was drafted in the 7th round (232nd overall) by the Chicago Bears in the 1998 NFL Draft, the final pick by the team in the draft. With the Bears, he started only one game. He joined the San Diego Chargers the following season. In 2000, Moreno replaced an ineffective Ryan Leaf for the Chargers against the Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins, completing 27 of 53 passes for 241 yards and two interceptions. On October 15, 2000, Moreno was benched after losing two fumbles in three plays against the Buffalo Bills. However, on November 5, Moreno led a 73-yard drive for a go-ahead field goal against the Seattle Seahawks, but Seattle rallied to win 17-15. Moreno suffered a torn labrum and was released by the Chargers on May 19, 2001 to make room for Sam Rogers. He was brought back by San Diego on April 20, but was released May 18. Moreno later tried out for the New York Jets, but was not signed. On September 20, the North County Times reported that Moreno filed a grievance against the Chargers, stating that he was injured at the time of his release. Moreno had surgery for the torn labrum on August 16. Moreno's agent, Peter Schaffer, stated that the Chargers had known of the injury, but not the extent of it. Moreno tried out for the Miami Dolphins in 2002, but was again not signed. In his professional career, he started three games, while playing in six others. He completed 51 of 103 passes for 485 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions.
